The Qlosi Clear Start Week

Help your patients achieve their near vision potential4

The Clear Start Week is for patients new to Qlosi and will help them adjust to their near vision. During this week, patients should be instructed to use Qlosi twice a day, every day. Consistent use at the start means the potential for better results over time as neuroadaptation takes effect.1-4

Flexible Dosing

Patients can now take advantage of the flexible dosing based on individual needs and can use Qlosi up to 2 times a day.4,*

*Presbyopia patients start with 1 drop of Qlosi in each eye twice a day for 7 days in a row.
